Chapter 1513: Chapter 1513: Shot Encounter (7)

He pointed the gun at Jiang Xue and said, "Miss Jiang, if you don’t want them both to die here with you, then come with us."

"Who sent you?" Jiang Xue looked at the man and asked calmly. Now they were surrounded by the enemy and held at gunpoint, it was truly a difficult situation. One wrong move and they might really perish here.

So, she had to stabilize the enemy first and then use the drug to knock them out. However, the drug takes time to take effect, and Huo Cong and Fengzi were also here; they had to take the antidote first, or else they would be knocked out just like the enemy.

"There’s no need for Miss Jiang to worry about that, we’re just following orders. If Miss Jiang knows what’s best, that would be ideal." The leader said with a sly smile. At this moment, in his eyes, Jiang Xue was like a bird with broken wings, unable to fly.

Moreover, there were two burdens here now; even if she wanted to do something, she’d have concerns.

"What if I don’t know what’s best?" Jiang Xue asked coldly. The leader immediately pointed the gun at Fengzi and said, "Then I’ll have to use them as an example."

"You?" Jiang Xue was furiously angry. At this moment, Huo Cong and Fengzi felt a bit regretful; they should have contacted the police first. Now, they’ve become a burden to Jiang Xue instead of helping her. Reporting to the police was impossible.

What to do?

Huo Cong thought while secretly taking out his phone, intending to call the police. However, the assassins weren’t fools; they had been monitoring both Huo Cong and Fengzi’s movements.

Seeing Huo Cong quietly pulling out his phone, they changed their expression and directly pointed a gun at his hand, saying, "Put down the phone or I’ll shoot."

Huo Cong was discovered, so he had to put down the phone, standing anxiously. Meanwhile, Jiang Xue made her move; she took out a pill from her pocket and crushed it.

As the pill shattered, a fragrant scent wafted into the noses of everyone present. Smelling the aroma, the assassins didn’t react immediately; only after several breaths did the leader catch on and glared at Jiang Xue, asking, "What did you do?"

"I didn’t do anything!" Jiang Xue spread her hands, feigning innocence. Even if she did it, she wouldn’t admit it.

"You!" The leader saw Jiang Xue’s demeanor and immediately got angry, not planning on taking her back but instead pulled the trigger.

The gunshot rang out, and Jiang Xue was startled. She dodged sideways, avoiding the enemy’s first shot. However, the second shot came swiftly after.

At this moment, Huo Cong suddenly acted; he lunged toward Jiang Xue, knocking her to the ground, taking the bullet himself.

As the gunfire subsided, Huo Cong was shot in the shoulder. Despite this, he didn’t leave Jiang Xue, remaining on top of her, intending to shield her from further shots.

Jiang Xue was stunned by Huo Cong taking a bullet for her; for a moment, she couldn’t react. When she finally came to, she became anxious and asked Huo Cong, "Are you okay?"

"I’m fine!" Huo Cong shook his head, but Jiang Xue then saw his wound, her face turning grim. She suddenly gave Huo Cong a shove, revealing several silver needles in her hand. At this moment, Jiang Xue was completely enraged and threw the silver needles.

With her movements, the leader suddenly fell to the ground, the silver needles piercing into his body.
